filter door schedules

[Martin Figlarz]

is there any way to filter door schedules per sheet like keynotes?

I am doing labcards and don't want to have to create 300 door schedules for each card.

I don't know what a labcard is .... but- why not use a special door tag that you move to where you want it in the view. If the door is inside the crop, the tag can be outside that but still inside the annotation crop and it could look like a schedule....

No unfortunately there is no filter by view/sheet

but if you can provide more detail on the make-up of your schedule maybe a parameter can be added that can possibly filter by sheet

what is a labcard is it a sheet do you have 300?

We do a lot of Bio Pharma. work and need to create 11x17 LABCARD'S for each space this way a user/lab tech. can review his/her room and make sure they have the equipment/utilities they need to test/produce/study their product.

In order to do that we create these detailed schedules that we maintain throughout the project. But filtering is not easy at all when you have to create so many schedules for each room. I was thinking of creating a legend or schedule that somehow I can filter by sheet/view/room.

As I said, use a tag- see attached.

Again schedules do not behave as keynotes were they can be filtered by sheet hence classified under legends.

Here is a file which is probably what you where trying to avoid - creating a schedule for each room.

However once you have one schedule created then you would only duplicate per as many rooms you have and change the filter . In this case I used a created parameter:

In the attached file I created a room parameter for the schedule which I used for the filter- this is a instance parameter so that you can enter the room number for all your doors on the one sheet in its element properties. I made this parameter invisible or if you like it to display on the schedule you can adjust.

It goes pretty fast once you have the one set up

Maybe you didn't realize....my schedule was not a schedule.... it is a simple door tag!

here 's the file

I like the door tag idea... just need to make it look clean and it will work.

The door filter per room is what we are doing now and frankly it sucks. I had so many door schedules my head hurts :P.

But I will try the tagging suggestion thanks!!!

Thank for the reply... I like to post these types of questions b/c sometimes people try things that I have never even thought of.
